Child & Family is a private, nonprofit organization working every day to help the most vulnerable children, families, and seniors across Rhode Island since 1866. 
Our mission is to strengthen individuals, families, and the communities in which they live by identifying needs and utilizing best practices. 

Child & Family’s Providence Community Center

1268 Eddy Street, Providence, RI 02905

Child & Family’s successful Newport County Community Center model has been replicated and the Providence Community Center has established itself as a full multi-service operation to support children, teens, families and elders.

This is the operations base for Child & Family’s Foster Care program and Providence Talks.  Child & Family’s Family Support Services and Aging Well Services also operate out of the facility.

As a hub of activity, this state-of-the-art community center provides meeting space for Providence area organizations and community groups.

 

“The community center in Providence is unbelievable and the people there really need it.  We encourage more people ‘cross the bridge’ to form bonds with Child & Family.”
